Newest Mercedes Comes With It's Own Crosswalk
Mercedes-Benz revealed a new concept car at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week but it's got more in common with Inspector Gadget than the family truckster. The "F 015 Luxury in Motion" car not only recognizes and reacts to pedestrians in front of it, it can even project a real-time crosswalk onto the road and use voice commands to direct the person to cross.

Just wait until another driver hits the pedestrian you've directed to cross. The lawyers will be all over you and Mercedes.
It's Murphy's Law, I can just see that happening. Will be interesting to see how liability issues like that shake out in the end.
